Chapter 204 - Overview

Carter looked out at the horizon which contained the vast sea of the Mediterranean.

After a couple minutes silently gazing at the serenity of the sea, possibly being disturbed deep below by Jones, Carter finally brought up the creature on their mind.

"You know… the Black Dragon hasn't once left the Universal Sentient Lifeform Spring since you brought it over from the Retail Market, right?"

"Mmm… I wasn't aware of that, but it makes sense…

I did destroy all the scales protecting its body, hahaha!"

Esmond's disturbing laughter caused Carter to frown slightly as he recalled the fight.

The precise attacks from Esmond never missed their mark as they landed dead centre in each of the Dragon Scales protecting the monstrous beast.

Carter knew Esmond held off from causing further damage to the Dragon, but it further ignited his fury for combat.

"Esy, I think you should go hunting in an Elemental Dungeon to take care of the excess anger fuelling your mind for another fight…

It seems you sealing off your power before you exercised it completely while battling the Black Dragon, causing slight backlash to your mental state."

Caught off guard, Esmond frowned a little that Carter asked him to 'cool off' but he also sensed the difference in his mentally ever since the small trip to the Retail Market.

Esmond earlier tried to figure out why his mind was affected after the fight, but until now he found nothing.

Hearing Carter call out his mood swing, Esmond realised he needed to sort out a solution as soon as possible, especially with the strength he possessed.

He feared something could go wrong with his power, causing untold damage and chaos across Earth or even further beyond the planet.

Taken heed of Carter's advice, Esmond left the CounterWorld and entered the Space Ark to search for a Chaos Elemental Dungeon, leaving his other half to deal with the issues of Atlaestreous Egypt.

But besides their efforts in the CounterWorld, operations in the Tartarus Zone heated up, especially with the addition of the Star Primordis, a deep space megastructure habitable station.

After it entered the same space zone designated for the Star Alcazar Citadel Megastructure, that had already caused the Mercenary Association of the Zone and other major powers to worry about the force behind the Atlaesusian Syndicate and Ark Alliance.

The Star Primordis, while formed from the Star-Forge, its greater capabilities caused the Mercenary Association to reassess their cooperation with the Ark Alliance.

However, this time, majority of the Star Primordis was reserved for military personnel over public access.

The Advance Mechanical Savant Lifeform Card Esmond was rewarded had activated before the trip to England, only to end up on the Star Primordis.

Its appearance wasn't any different from the highly realistic androids produced within the Space Ark, but its abilities pushed it ahead of anything they could produce.

From being able to create simple intricate items to massive megastructures on its own, the male like appearance of the android was sent over to Star Primordis to act as the overseer of Production Operations, Repairs, and Waste Recycling.

Because the Advance Mechanical Savant Lifeform was essentially a highly complicated Artificial Intelligence System that was alive and able to develop on their own.

Star Primordis became the perfect working environment for the Mechanical Savant, as it started developing machinery to aid Tryeous construction into a habitable planet for Ark Alliance and Atlaesusian Syndicate Forces.

The Tartarus Zone was becoming fiercer and much more active with more forces beginning to worry about the emergence of the two Citadel Class Orbital Space Stations.

Yet those issues weren't of any real concern to the forces of the Space Ark and its allies because the forces of the Ark Alliance and Syndicate started to emerge and turn the part of the Zone into their own territory.

This caused several different organisational entities to reconsider their opinion of the Syndicate and Alliance, though it similarly kickstarted certain misadventures that would try and seek out the two Citadel Class Orbital Space Stations.

Most people wanted to find the Citadel Class Starships to add greater strength to their organisation, believing it possessed plenty of firepower.

Unlike the majority, a select few knew the true value to the Citadel Class Ships, which was food and its ability to farm crops, not just those native to Earth, but from other species and planetary bodies.

Of course, the crops would first enter the Spatial Ark Star World to be analysed and processed, only for the strengthened crop to be utilised.

.

Some of the new crops found from visitors of the Star Alcazar made its way onto the Titan Class Ship taken from the pirates that attacked the Obadia Fleet.

It had been outfitted as soon as possible for war and deep exploration, with the Bloody Princess and Obadia Fleet preparing to make the Titan Class Ship their centrepiece.

It became the home for majority of the combined fleet, so it hosted more than living quarters but also plenty of room for research facilities, recreational activities, and farmland that aided the healthcare of the personnel on the Ships.

Clones, Yautja, Warring Clans, and plenty of other military forces from the Space Ark joined the Titan Class Ship, excited for warfare and chaos they would come across in the Tartarus Zone during their travels.

Fett Clones, Elves, Dwarves, and even the might of the Nine Great Families of Westeros had involved themselves in the affairs of the Tartarus Zone since Earth didn't require their attention.

Nor did Stovi and Astelan require their attention much like the Tartarus Zone because of the wealth of resources flooding the two worlds joined through the Space Ark as the Nexus Gate to travel.

The Vaadan Region in Stovi had solidified its presence as a separate nation apart from the Trika Empire, with special circumstances that allowed all neighbouring nations to easily visit Vaadan Haven as the Landport leading into the vast Vaadan Region.

Visitors that arrived would typically be overwhelmed by the goods on offer just in the Landport City, which both frightened many and excited them because they wanted to know what else there was to offer in the greater Vaadan Region.

Those invested in creating their lives in Stovi by settling down some roots, enjoyed the same comforts they received within the Spatial Ark Star World, though the infrastructure was lacking in certain regions.

With time they improved and aided the welfare of the residents across the Vaadan Region, but it still lacked the purity and strength of the Hidden World that everyone evidently could see and notice.

It acted as a deterrence for those thinking of performing crimes, while for others it behaved as the force behind their safety and those around them.

The Androids and various species from within the Spatial Ark Star World were scattered across the Vaadan Region, acting as an enforcing agency.

They also behaved as a military force against beasts, creatures, and worst of all, humans, though their main goal was maintaining order, peace, and justice.

Most of the Yautja Unblooded youth and Warring Clansmen were sent out into the Wicked Grove, driving right into the chaos of the unexplored and dangerous forest.

Hunting beside their Tamed Beasts, the Ark Military Force moved like the wind, cutting through the dense forest, ensuring the territory near the boundary of the Vaadan Region.

Vileta turned into the Capital of the Vaadan Region, as the main stable gate from the Space Ark was set up in the former small village town.

Julius Mercer and his wife Angela were able to easily transition into their new role as the figureheads and rulers of the Vaadan Region, while Isabelle manage it from the shadows.

Julius worked beside Levas, his second in command and overseer of the newly established Merchant Guild in the Vaadan Region to fuel wealth into their lands, while Angela used her connections to draw noble society, who spent unbelievable amounts of their wealth when visiting.

She also found herself swamped with visitors from the Atlaesyxrian Imperium, especially the nobility, who couldn't wait to explore the unknown world in their free time.

.

The nobility wished to visit Astelan too, since the vast world of the Cultivation realm was far more interesting for the strong head nobles that wanted to seek out power and danger to a whole different level.

Grand Elder of the Primordial Xrian Creed had to allocate plenty of resources and manpower to deal with the constant visitors from the Spatial Ark Star World, both to introduce them to Astelan, but also possibly train them in the arts of the Creed.

Kizelar, the Scholar of the Raibeelze Library, had his students take on some of the roles to aid the Creed, who were rather busy dealing with the expansion of their territory.

From the peaks of various mountains across the Range that was in the territory of the Creed, the Grand Elder decided, once gaining Esmond's confirmation, that it was time to draw in the villiages and towns scattered across the territory into their fold.

By giving them all a sense of security and jobs alongside education, the residents of the Creed territory were far ahead than other commoners and even nobles found across Astelan.
